Hi
 
Working with VB6/SP6 and CJ Suite 13.1.0
 
Probably I am missing something because I can't believe, that such a basic operation as MouseDowen - Drag for selection - MouseUp is not implemented in RC...
 
Thanks for a hint

Shure, but I can only select multiple rows with Shift&Click and Ctrl&Click. But in all Windows application you can select multiple rows by dragging the mouse while holding down the left mouse button (Explorer, Excel...).
 
But thanks for asking!

Hi Fabian, how do you get Explorer to allow you to select by dragging? For me it always drags the selected item.

Anyway, I agree that it would be a nice feature to add the RC as a property. It should be possible to implement yourself using the MouseEvents and hit testing, but of course this would be a bit of a pain.

Hey Fabian,

I gave it a shot and came up with a class that seems to work pretty well. I haven't added many comments to the source code, so if you have any questions about it (or find any bugs), feel free to get back to me here.

An important note: I don't have permission to redistribute the source code for Karl E. Peterson's Timer class that I am using to handle auto-scrolling/selecting. You will have to download it and add the CTimer.cls and modTimer.bas files to the project in order for it to work (you don't need to reference any DLLs or OCXs, just use his VB6 code in my demo project). You can get his code from here:

http://vb.mvps.org/samples/snatch.asp?id=TimerObj

There's more information about the timer here: http://vb.mvps.org/samples/TimerObj/

LOOK BELOW FOR LATEST SOURCE

Hi jbpro
 
If you start dragging right at the end of a column you can mark items with the mouse.
 
Yes I simulate this using mouse events and the RC Navigator but there are a lot of things to do (mouse up on a column with check boxes marks the checkbox, if you simply click in an edit box or a combo removes the focus immediately because I select the row and so on). Now I have a working version but I think that is basic and sould be done by RC!
 
Thats my code:
 
Private FirstRow1       As ReportRow
Private Sub ReportControl1_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Long, y As Long)
  Set FirstRow1 = Nothing
  If Button = vbLeftButton And Shift = 0 Then
    If ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).ht = xtpHitTestReportArea Then
      If Not ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).Item Is Nothing Then
        If ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).Item.Index <> COL_NOTIZ2 Then  'This column is not allowed to start selection
          Set FirstRow1 = ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).Row
          If Not FirstRow1 Is Nothing Then
            ReportControl1.SelectedRows.DeleteAll
            FirstRow1.Selected = True
          End If
        End If
      End If
    End If
  End If
End Sub
 
Private Sub ReportControl1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Long, y As Long)
  Dim Row As ReportRow
 
  If Button = vbLeftButton And Shift = 0 And Not FirstRow1 Is Nothing Then
    If ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).ht = xtpHitTestReportArea Then
      Set Row = ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).Row
      If Not Row Is Nothing Then
        ReportControl1.Navigator.MoveToRow Row.Index, True
      End If
    End If
  End If
End Sub
 
Private Sub ReportControl1_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Long, y As Long)
  Dim Row As ReportRow
 
  If Button = vbLeftButton And Shift = 0 And Not FirstRow1 Is Nothing Then
    If ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).ht = xtpHitTestReportArea Then
      ReportControl1.Navigator.MoveToRow FirstRow1.Index, False
      Set Row = ReportControl1.HitTest(x, y).Row
      If Not Row Is Nothing Then
        ReportControl1.Navigator.MoveToRow Row.Index, True
      End If
    End If
  End If
End Sub

But thanks for asking!
 
What are you talking about, Fabian - at least under XP Explorer - if I am dragging mouse holding left mouse button - I only see one selected row (the row I start dragging) and moving drag and drop icon - not multiple rows...
 
In Excel this is possible but not in Explorer!
 
I guess that you mean Tracker mode when you start dragging outside item and tracker rectanlge cover several items - in this case it create multi-selection.
Explorer use this mode because it is convinient in IconView mode (and not very convinient in Table (ReportView) Mode).
But we don't use tracker-based selection in ReportControl...

OK, Mark
 
Nonetheless I think RC is nearer to EXCEL as to explorer and this feature would be very handy for the user. I have found a solution with the Navigator class (s. post) but I would be happy if it was done by the component itself...
 
 
Only a wish!

Hi Fabian, thanks for your code and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

It seems that your code (as well as mine) suffers from the problem of checkboxes changing on MouseUp. This actually seems like a bug to me, since I would argue that a checkbox should only change if it is clicked (mouse down AND mouse up), not just on mouse up...wouldn't Drag & Drop cause a similar problem? I'll see if I can find a workaround.

Also, I don't know if you had a chance to try my code, but it offers some feature advantages over yours - mostly that it uses a timer so that users can continually extend the selection when the mouse is not over the RC any more (clicked and dragged the mouse off of the form for example).

But again, I do agree that this would be a nice built-in feature for the RC.

Thanks Mark - that's true with latest 13.2 (it wasn't true with the 13.2 I was using with working markup). In any case, I still think the checkbox should only be changed on MouseDown/MouseUp....not just MouseUp - try clicking and holding the mouse down on a completely separate row, then drag and release over a glyph on another row and it will get selected. This is unusual/non-intuitive behaviour for checkboxes in Windows.

I've updated my demo to include a workaround to prevent accidental checkbox value changes on MouseUp. You will still need to add the CTimer.cls and modTimer.bas code separately (although you can try the included EXE for functionality testing without any additional downloads).

It would also be nice if there was a BeforeItemCheck() event with a Cancel parameter so that we could dynamically cancel item checking (or even just to record the previous CheckboxState for reverting/undo).

Jason I still not understand how your checkbox can change state if you not click (does not matter - say use MouseUp event) on the glyph?

It appears that the situation with the checkbox is somewhat improved with the latest 13.2, but it will still change the checkbox value when the mouse is down on the focused row (but not over the glyph) and then the mouse is up over the glyph. I would argue that the checkbox should only change value when the mouse is down over the glyph and then up over the same glyph.

This sample demonstrates the problem:

uploads/20090918_144040_RcCheckboxSelec.zip

Try Clicking on the non-checkbox column and then drag and release over a checkbox glyph. It will change value.

I did not see check effect - but I found bad effect of your autoselection in the case dragging column on report body - it show X-icon but still doing autoselection. This is not smart

Thanks for the bug report Mark. It should be fixed now for column header drag case:

UPDATED SOURCE BELOW!

If you don't see the checkbox issue, then it must be because you have a newer build? Did you test it with the small sample I provided (not the main drag selector demo)?

Get new build yourself please - https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/BetaOCX/ReportControlBeta13-2.rar
so we can use same code
 
You new source is not buildable (runnable) 
 
line WithEvents mo_AutoScrollTimer  As CTimer 
 
Compiler error: User defined type not defined
 
Please check and update
 
But I can run your exe - now no problems with X-Icon case and no problems with checkboxes!

Just tested with the latest build you provided, and I still see the problem. I tested with the CJ ReportSample, and here is what I notice:

1) Load the CJ Report sample and click Additional Samples > Tree View Dialog Sample.
2) Click and hold the left mouse over the selected row, but NOT over the checkbox glyph.
3) Drag the mouse (while still holding mouse button)  and move the pointer over the checkbox glyph on the same (highlighted) row.
4) Release the mouse button, and the checkbox value will be changed.

I also notice a similar problem with RC buttons, but worse because you don't even have to release over the same row for a click to be registered:

1) Start the CJ report sample and click the Additional Samples menu > Report Items Sample.
2) Click and hold the mouse over any non-button part of a report row.
3) Drag the mouse (button down) over top of any of the buttons (even one on a non-selected row).
4) Release the mouse button over a item button and it will be clicked (the font will change bold/colour/whatever action for the button you released the mouse over).

As for source not buildable/runnable, please see comments in source and in posts above - I don't have permission to redistribute the CTimer.cls and modTimer.bas source code, but it is available for public download. The exe is built with this code compiled in (that's why it works).

Are you talking about VB sample? I can't drag row in Tree Vew dialog - guess no DD flag set

But I can confirm that hold and release mouse on glyph area change check state
 
In Report Items Sample (with B, A and Alignment buttons) - I can't see autoclick effect
 
Why we have different behaviour?

Yes, the VB sample made by Codejock - Forget the fact that Drag & Drop isn't enabled, I'm just using it to demonstrate the point that if the left mouse button is released over the glyph of a checkbox on the currently selected row, then the checkbox value will change (checked if previously unchecked, or unchecked if previously checked) even if the left mouse button wasn't initially pressed over the glyph. Based on standard checkbox behaviour, the value should only change values if the left mouse button was pressed and released over it.

If you aren't seeing this or the button behaviour, then there is indeed something weird going on...I'm using Sep 18 @ 2:38PM build of 13.2, and it both issues are reproducible every time here. I'll try uninstalling completely, run a reg-cleaner and then re-install to be 100% sure I have the latest version. I can't figure out why we are seeing such different behaviour lately...

I know you asked Kurt about putting the build # in the About box (thanks for that), but if that isn't going to happen during the beta period, then how about a Version string property that shows the latest build number? At least then I can do a Debug.Print Me.ReportControl1.Version and be 100% sure I am not running into some kind of bizarre registry problem. Because this part of the beta testing process is wasting a lot of time...

You are not 100% right about checkbox behaviour.
It is true if checkbox is stand-alone control in form - you need MouseDown-MouseUp on same glyph.
But buit-in checkbox (e.g. checkbox in MS DateTimePicker) - react on your first MouseDown - immediately
 
Btw - this is not difficult to implement checking mouse down and mouse up points to prevent this effect

IMHO, I think that an interface item should always react on MouseDown+MouseUp (Click), because this gives the user a chance to change their mind by dragging off of the control and the releasing the button. That said, I can see an argument for reaction on MouseDown only (especially in the case of things like touch or pen based interaction, since it is easy to accidentally move off of the control you are trying to click which becomes annoying quickly, and if you touch something on the screen, you likely did it on purpose).

Both of those things said, I can not agree that an item should ever react on MouseUp only - it would never be an intuitive behaviour. So MouseDown=reaction or MouseDown+MouseUp=reaction would be acceptable in my opinion, but never MouseUp=reaction.

Anyway, I've just cleaned out my system and restarted, so I am about to install the latest update for testing and I will get back to you with results shortly.

I can confirme that I now have 9644 in IDE, and I can confirm that the checkbox case is now fixed. Thanks a lot Mark.

I still see the Item control issue though - Try the CJ Report Sample > Additional Samples > Record Item Controls Sample. Click and hold mouse over text portion of cell, drag and release over a button and the button will be clicked. It's easier to notice if you release over the non-selected row (in the case of the colour changing button). You will also notice the debug window print something like "ItemButtonClick. Row = 3, Item = 0, Control = 2".

Good - could you try to find some other missing cases please?
E.g. - some internal editor activated without logical reason (focus on subitem we don't need in this moment)?

Sure, I just found another in CJ RC sample. On the main sample report, click and hold over a regular row item then drag & release over the group expand/collapse glyph and it will be clicked.

Also, I don't know if this is designed behaviour or not, but each time you click the group expand/collapse glyph (properly, mousedown/up over glyph), the selection highlight toggles on/off. If you double-click the group row (not the glyph) to expand or collapse the group, this doesn't happen (selection highlight always remains visible).

Same thing for hyperlinks - click elsewhere then release over a hyperlink fires click. This can also be tested in the main sample report in the CJ sample.

Same problem with expand/collapse glyphs in TreeView sample (not sure if this is the same code as group expand/collapse, so that's why I mention it) but only if you click and release in the focused row!

Try the CJ Report Sample > Additional Samples > Tree View Dialog Sample. Click and hold over "Bruce Wayne" then drag and release over the glyph beside "Re:" on the same row. It will expand the tree node.

I can confirm I have 9646, but I don't see a different result for expand/collapse glyph mouseup...

Thanks Mark.

Fixed:
Hyperlinks no longer respond to only MouseUp
TreeView expand/collapse glyphs no longer respond to only MouseUp

ToDo:
GroupRow expand/collapse glyphs respond to only MouseUp
GroupRow expand/collapse toggles selection (unless there is a good reason why this should happen??)

All of the MouseUp issues appear to be corrected as far as I have tested...Thanks a lot Mark.

A little comment about hyperlink case - this is a weak case as you can MouseDown on one hyperlink and MouseUp on another hyperlink (inside same cell) and hyperlink (based on MouseUp) will be fired

Back to the original subject of this thread - for anyone who is interested, here is the most recent drag selection class (works best with most recent build of the ReportControl):


uploads/20090918_180716_RcDragSelector.zip

REMEMBER: In order to use this source code, you will have to download a separate timer class (I don't have permission to publicly redistribute the source code). The timer class is available here:

http://vb.mvps.org/samples/snatch.asp?id=TimerObj

Just add the CTimer.cls and modTimer.bas files to the project (or substitute your own favourite timer class...you could even modify it to use a VB6 timer control).
